Geri - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Orange, California

Meet our tiny treasure This sweet little girl is about 2 years old and only 10 pounds, but she has a big personality just waiting to bloom. When she first arrives in a new home, she may be a bit shy and unsure, needing a little time to feel safe and comfortable. With patience, a calm environment, and a gentle approach, she quickly begins to open up. Here’s the magic part ✠̈ — give her a few days of space, consistency, and kindness, and she transforms into a fun, playful, and fabulous little dog. Once she feels secure, her true personality shines and she becomes an absolute joy to be around. She would do best in a home with another small, friendly dog, as she loves canine companionship and gains confidence by following their lead. A quiet home with adopters who understand shy dogs and are willing to let trust build naturally would be perfect for her. If you believe love, patience, and kindness can change
